FAQ

Common questions about Eugene rankings, source records, and community votes.

How are agents selected for Eugene?

What does the risk score mean?

The risk score is a simple measure of how many complaints an agent has. For every 10 bad reviews, one point is added to their score, up to a maximum of 10/10. A higher score means more negative client experiences are on record.
